Based on the results of the present study the following can be concluded:
RTA and stab injury were the leading causes of blunt and penetrating abdominal trauma respectively in our region.
Strict adherence to the traffic rules, improving the road conditions, pedestrian lights, pedestrian overpasses etc may reduce the chance of RTA and therefore abdominal trauma.
Males are more prone to abdominal trauma withier blunt or penetrating.
Cardiothoracic injury is the most common injury in blunt and penetrating so it must be kept in mind during management of trauma patient.
Focused assessment sonography of trauma(FAST scan)has high sensitivity in detection of free fluid collection., but less sensitive to detection of abdominal organ injury.
Computerized tomography is considered as the gold standerd in diagnosis of even minor injury but it is only can be done in hemodynamically stable patients which is not an available option in many cases.
Blunt trauma may be managed conservatively or surgically according to the case while penetrating abdominal trauma must go under laparotomy even if the patient is haemodinamically stable
